Nose
Picudo, typical of the Subbética, tends to bring ripe-fruit notes; Hojiblanca adds herbaceous freshness and Picual a green fruitiness.
Palate
Each variety contributes something of its own: sweetness from Picudo, structure from Picual and a light pungency from Hojiblanca. The whole is rounded and friendly.
Finish
A clean finish, with enough character to flavour raw dishes and the resilience to cook without losing aroma.
The Córdoba Subbética and Almaoliva Gran Selección
Almazaras de la Subbética brings together olive growers from the hills of southern Córdoba, a district of limestone mountains where olive groves cover almost the whole landscape. There Picudo has grown alongside Picual and Hojiblanca for generations.
Almaoliva is the brand the mill devotes to its selection oils, made with the fruit of its members and bottled at source. Almaoliva Gran Selección is its blend for every day.

Why Almaoliva Gran Selección in a 5-litre jug
Five litres cover many weeks of consumption in a household and work out cheaper per litre than small formats. It is the usual size in catering and in homes where everything is cooked with extra virgin.
To keep it in the best condition, store the jug somewhere cool and dark and fill a smaller cruet from it for daily use. That way the oil left in the jug is barely exposed to air.
